Another solid opener for the Blue Devils! After a 3 week hiatus for the holidays, the Blue Devils were back in action last Saturday at the North Coast Invitational hosted at the Nationally renowned Spire Institute Facility. Amongst the highlights was performances by Freshman, Eric Williams. Known for being a former state champion 110m high hurdler, Williams showed this week that he was no stranger to the open sprints as well. His time of 7.24 in 60m Dash is the 5th fastest time in the history of our program. That accomplishment coupled with a 8.49 performance (a tenth off his personal best of 8.48, 2nd all-time) in the 60m Hurdles and a strong early season performance in the 200m (23.38) earned him Fredonia State Male Athlete of the Week honors, so congratulations Eric!

Next meet will be the Terrier Classic at Boston University January 25-26th. Women will compete on Friday, while the Men will compete on Saturday!
